Another year

by Callyman » Fri Nov 14, 2014 8:24 pm

Forgot to say, turbo passed mot last Friday.
Also had a really bad running problem on idle then a few days later I was struggling to get it to even move. Got it to Sheldons place and turned out to be a bad connection on the maf plug.
so now it purrs on idle, pulls better and drives smoother than its been in years.
just need to fit new actuator when I get time.

Good stuff Andy, got the same actuator myself, unfitted and been lying for two years! Hopefully yours will be fitted before mine.

Only the running issue was worrying me, MOT got delayed 48 hours as it wouldn't of got there.

I didn't buy it for the bling as it'll be covered anyway, I got it as my current one seems to boost too high when backed right off.
So this one has a slightly softer 'yellow' spring.
